About This Role

By utilising DevOps, businesses deliver systems faster, cheaper, and without sacrificing high quality. It is an environment, a philosophical mindset, and a framework that brings together development and operations to create stable, repeatable platforms for product deployment.

To become a DevOps specialist, you need technical and soft skills to seamlessly integrate with multiple teams. Engineers use tools to deploy infrastructure as code, create automation, test during deployment, and hook in monitoring systems for rapid, up-to-date reporting.

As a DevOps Engineer, you will collaborate with development and operations teams to automate application deployment across multiple environments. You will monitor system health and performance, troubleshoot issues, and implement infrastructure as code to manage resources effectively. You will also contribute to improving DevOps practices and processes.

We do not expect you to be an expert immediately—that's where our award-winning Academy comes in. We focus on building your skills and confidence in a supportive environment to develop you into a confident, capable consultant.

What We're Looking For

You should demonstrate proficiency in Python or a similar language, have a passion for technology, and be eager to learn advanced programming skills.

Our Values

• Empathy and Diversity: Integrity, respect, and inclusivity.
• Drive: Goal-oriented with pride in exceeding targets.
• Collaboration: Team-focused, fostering positive relationships.
• Innovation: Curious, creative, and open to diverse ideas.
• Flexibility: Adaptable and composed in changing situations.

Candidates must be willing to relocate post-training for deployment to client sites, with remote work not guaranteed. Eligibility to work in the UK is required; we do not sponsor visas or accept Graduate or PSW Visas.

Why You Should Apply

Our environment nurtures your talents, and your hard work is rewarded. Performance reviews occur every six months, offering opportunities to increase your earnings twice yearly. We also provide various benefits including annual leave, pension, eye care, and more.

Additional Benefits

• 20 days annual leave + bank holidays
• Birthday day off
• Pension, eye care, death in service cover
• Cycle to work scheme, season ticket loan
• Employee assistance program
• Budget for personal development
• Access to alumni networks and opportunities to be brand ambassadors

Joining Sparta Global is an investment in your future, offering diverse experiences and growth opportunities. No two career paths are the same here.
